Crimson Desert Physical Version Has a Big Catch

It seems that early copies of the highly anticipated action-adventure game Crimson Desert are already out in the wild ahead of its official March 19 launch, but attempts to launch the game ahead of time have revealed a rather unexpected limitation with the physical version. According to a report by PushSquare, players planning to buy a physical copy of the game will still need an internet connection to fully install it, as it can't run directly from the disc. Instead, a mandatory day-one update must be downloaded before Crimson Desert can be launched at all.
